Bhuvneshwar Kumar’s no ball in the very first over of Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) innings handed Jos Buttler a lifeline as the Englishman punished the potent bowling attack of the Kane Williamson-led side in match No.5 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Tuesday. Giving RR a promising start, England opener Buttler teamed up with youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal as the duo recorded a 58-run partnership for the Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan side in the opening Powerplay.
Following Buttler’s dismissal in the 7th over, RR captain Samson played a sublime knock to help the 2008 champions register their 10th highest total in the history of IPL. Samson smashed a quick-fire 55 off 27 balls while RR debutant Devdutt Padikkal chipped in with a crucial 41 off 29 balls. With RR setting a massive target for SRH at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium, let’s take a quick look at the 10 highest totals of the 2008 IPL champions in the shortest format.
